This glass bead was made circa 1950 in Japan by Cherry Brand for Miriam Haskell.Cherry Brand beads were hand made beads made by a group of glass artisans in Osaka, Japan from 1945 to 1952 during the US Occupation of Japan after WWII. Cherry Brand was not a factory! Cherry Brand was actually a large group of individual artisans that made these glass beads in their homes.
